Seriously, look at this crazy thing! I didn’t know what celeriac was before this season- but now I do! It’s the root of a celery plant. […]
Our first Winter Veggie Box had the most delightful surprise inside…a purple cauliflower! After spending way too much time oogling over the violet beauty, I decided to cook some of it up with another item from the box – parsnip. One tray was filled with deliciously spiced goodness… and another tray had the veggies minus […]
